Dear Diary,
Well, here we are. So far my entire life has been building to when I joined the school. Not to say this place isn't fun and all but I really could use some breathing room. I hate it that every one of the teachers knows my story and they all act like I'm going to break or something. Wait…wait; let me rephrase that most of the teachers act that way. All of them except Logan. Honestly he is purposely pushing me towards oblivion. I guess it kind of is my fault; I didn't make the greatest impression. I suppose I have time before one of his classes to tell you.
Alright so the Professor got me integrated into the school for the last term of the year. I'm pretty swift in academics so I didn't take to long for me to catch up, thank goodness for public libraries. I ended up making friends with one of the louder groups in the school. Rouge, my best friend, was the one who first introduced me to them all. There was Jubilee, the fireworks blaster, Pyro and Iceman, names explain powers, and of course Gambit, powers up playing cards followed by big kabooms. If you're wondering Rouge's power is a little difficult to explain. You see she can, as the Professor puts it, absorb the life force of whoever she touches. Oh! I almost forgot, Kitty can go through solid objects.
Now that intro's are over let me explain the first time I met Mr. Logan. Okay, so most of the teachers are alright at the school in there relative areas. Lucky for us they all had to go on a mission (they make up a secret organization called the X-men. Shhhh ). So we were given a break from their ever watchful eyes. Iceman, Rouge, and I had been talking about the weekend before about what we were going to do over summer break. Iceman said he was going up to visit his parents in Boston. Rouge and I were staying at the school. Rouge ran away from home and I…. That's when the trouble started. All of a sudden we heard the roar of a motorcycle engine down the road that leads to the gate. Turning around I saw this guy come riding quickly along the path. I looked back at Rouge and Iceman to get the story and saw Rouge's eyes light up. Suddenly she sprung up and ran to the guy on the bike. Oops, I'm going to have to cut this narrative short, Mr. Logan just caught me.

Seriously that guy is worse than Mr. Summers. I mean I can take a tongue lashing but to have those claws flashing right in my face. I know, I know I should feel sorry for the guy but (Screams in fury) okay I feel better. Now back to my narrative, so I guess I must have asked Iceman with my eyes or something because he mouthed the word Logan and got up to follow. Nodding my head in understanding I followed him. I had heard the story from all of them. Turns out this wacko mutant tried to bring about some major destruction. The X-men stopped him and saved Rouge who the wacko was trying to use. To bad I hadn't been there I'd of loved to plunge my darts around. Anyway it's why Rouge has her white hairs. So anyway I walked over to join Rouge, Iceman, and this big hero guy. I had also heard that this guy had lost his memories because of mutant experiments. Sorry I can't help but shiver.
Now Rouge being her sweet self decided to introduce us. Me, being my shy held in self, smiled sweetly and prayed this would be over soon. Mr. Logan just nodded in my direction. Hey, at least he made some kind of motion. Anyway there is something you got to know about me. When I'm nervous I tend towards releasing my claw/barb/darts. I felt a strange poking sensation in my fingers and went super pale. Mr. Logan looked at me strangely and asked in his gruff way if I was alright. Rogue took one look, grabbed my shoulders and led me to a corner so I could let loose, literally. You see when ever my barbs come out I sometimes can't bring them back in without shooting them firs, nice huh. It just happened to be one of those shoot days. Unfortunately it was also the day Ms. Monroe moved the metal shaded lamp to the corner. I had cautiously taken off my gloves so not to trigger anything when KAPOOF, they shot out. They then proceeded to hit the lamp shade and fling towards the doorway. Now by this time everyone knew when I was in the room you had to be careful, that is unless you want to be in Dr. Grey's care. You know, that explains why so many of the boys try to get me to shoot them, but that's a discussion for another time.

Dear diary,
Sorry I had to cut off early, Gambit was trying to see what I was doing. Honestly he and every other guy in this school are acting so weird. So as I was saying, or writing, or whatever, everyone knew to be prepared to duck and cover. Everyone that is except Mr. Logan. Looking back now I'd say it was a very good shot, I mean it hit all the major areas to move it through the blood stream. As you can guess it did hit Mr. Logan and he went down like a sack of potatoes. Good old Rouge rushed to his side while I could only stare in mute disbelief. Snapping back to reality I cautiously mad my way over. The guy looked dead, even though he was only paralyzed. Rouge was trying to shake him out of it when suddenly he sprang up, claws unsheathed, growling, and looking dead at me. Now I am woman enough to admit I nearly peed my pants. That look in his eyes didn't only scare me, but it brought me back to just before my parents deaths. The guy took a ferocious first step towards me, and before I knew out came my barbs and he was on the floor, for good.
The Professor and the other X-men, I mean faculty, came home an hour or so later. I got the standard talking to and all the punishment I was looking forward to, NOT! Still nothing beat that stare Mr. Logan gave me when he woke up the second time. It can't be described as pure anger, it was worse. So now I had gone and made an enemy in a school of friends. Yep, and the guy holds the keys to my grade. I'm toast.
